A simple horizontal Block, based of the default gallery hook supplied in IPB.
It will show 4 Random Gallery Images, evenly spaced out. Number of Images can be changed by altering the number of records pulled.

You will need to add your own CSS styling to alter the gaps between the images.

Sorry i got one more question. Is there any way to use this block twice on page ?

I want to put latest 1 image on page side bar that will show who added rating etc....I saw the forum sidebar hook like this...but nothing for IP.content :(

[NiftyWolfie]

I do have a single random image block. But it just shows the image. I'll take a look and see what I can come up with for you

Please don't just report files as broken without first trying to get support from the support topic. I just tested this IP.Content block and it works fine on the latest official releases of IP.Content and IP.Gallery. Removing broken file flag.

Getting the following error:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'glib is not an object.........................

Any help?

Thanks

Sorry not been well will look into this today :)

Thanks for the hook. Works well except for one. The images are distorted. Tell me, how to make the image will be cut under the square?

In order to be clearer here's a screenshot:
now


as it should be

Mine are distorted too although it seems to be because instead of the gallery thumbnails loading its the original photo. Is it suppose to pull the thumbnail of a photo or take the photo and restrict it to size? thanks

Nevermind! I think I found the issue http://community.invisionpower.com/tracker/issue-32295-poor-quality-images-from-ipcontent-gallery-feeds/
